The Leite Rondônia Project was conceived by the Instituto BioSistêmico (IBS) with the objective of promoting the development of dairy farming in the Ji-Paraná microregion, located in the Amazon Biome, in the state of Rondônia, Northern region of Brazil.
​
With the support of resources from the Zoetis Foundation in this initiative, IBS proposes a set of activities and technological assistance resources, structured and modulated for the development and adaptation of the production process, improving the quality, health and productivity of milk in this region.
​
IBS consultancy is developed based on structured assistance to working groups formed by modules of 20 producers. In total, service is planned for 100 producers, with the development of individual and collective activities.
​
The Leite Rondônia Project's services are carried out by a multidisciplinary team of consultants from the BioSistema Institute, made up of agronomists, veterinarians and zootechnicians.
